This whole thing is chilling, but I want to point out the end: the witness is afraid to go home because she is worried she will be held indefinitely by feds, that other witnesses have been taken by feds, and that they are trying to cover up what happened.

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

This is the most worrisome part of Trump’s push to acquire Greenland. Republicans are starting to agree with him. All those polls showing how unpopular it is - all the Republicans are going to toe the party line if Trump takes serious action. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/u...

Hey Republicans I found your fraud and grift

It's worth pointing out that the only "success" in this article is the stock market, which is up 14.7% in the past year. That's barely more than the 4-year Biden average, and substantially worse than several individual years under Biden. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

This is a big weakness of the GOP: the idea that Americans would be organically opposed, en masse, to ICE’s terror campaign is completely foreign to them. They don’t realize that their blind support for it is torpedoing public opinion.

As many have pointed out Trump is insane. What fewer people are talking about is the role his advisors and political allies are playing in feeding his delusions. This isn’t just the work of a single madman! The entire GOP is rotten.

ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

Imagine if this were Biden and, say, Rachel Maddow.

So she had a pulse. That’s what the doctor on the scene wanted to check. She wasn’t breathing, but she had a pulse. He could have started CPR right away. Instead ICE barred the doctor from attending her and waited 15 mins for EMT to get to her.

Holy shit. Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Oops, this is a direct consequence of Trump’s foreign policy. Strengthening China at the expense of America.

I don’t think this goes the way Trump thinks it does. He’s obsessed with projecting strength; what happens when regular Minnesotans just keep showing up and yelling at the military in addition to ICE? Then what cards does he have left to play?

Congratulations to John Roberts

If you go a bit further back on this verified account tracker bot, you'll also see a lot of members of UK Parliament getting verified (and also a few random US Democratic politicians).

This exchange reveals the true philosophy underlying the modern GOP. They think they are above the law, which they are, because they have the power to be above the law. When Democrats regain power they need to use it, and not hide behind legalism or bipartisanship.

Paging Jake Tapper

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

Haha this is amazing

It’s not your imagination - the job market is very bad; the worst it’s been since the depths of covid, and outside of covid probably the worst it has been in more than a decade.

🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

Grok producing vile sexualized deepfakes of women and children isn’t an accident www.cnn.com/2026/01/08/t...

Just seen Grok putting the body of the victim of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis into a bikini. Digital corpse desecration now available to the public.

Five years on, it’s become clear than Jan 6 was successful. Trump is president again, acts with impunity, while any discussion of this event has been memory holed amongst the mainstream media and political center of this country.

It's wild that the PM of a NATO member feels compelled to put out a statement like this vis-à-vis the US government.

I’m really excited to see what the popularists have to say about Trump’s kidnapping of Maduro.

fwiw it’s been about six weeks since Trump pardoned the former president of Honduras who had been convicted of trafficking drugs into the US

The fact that we're unsure whether bodies washing ashore on the Caribbean are caused by Hegseth's strikes versus, say, criminal organizations murdering people, should give many more Americans pause on what Trump is doing. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/23/w...

Very normal thing for the president to say to American children.

Examining what it would cost to end extreme poverty using direct income transfers finds an estimate of 0.3 percent of global GDP, from Roshni Sahoo, Joshua Blumenstock, Paul Niehaus, Leo Selker, and Stefan Wager www.nber.org/papers/w34583

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar: "Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

While some will debate whether we are in a recession or not, the economic picture is clear: regular Americans are experiencing a deteriorating job market where wage gains barely outpace inflation. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/12...

The FIFA Peace Prize was very funny when it happened, but turns out it was just run of the mill corruption. An incoming Democratic administration needs to hold FIFA accountable. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/n...

There have been 62 murders in DC in the past six months, including two dozen since Trump seized control of the city's policing. I found the names of 21 of the victims, killed since Trump's takeover, he ignores when he tells this lie: www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

The inflation rate is essentially identical now to when Trump took office, and still persistently above the Fed target of 2%. As always, Republicans are lying to your face.

As always, the accusations about Biden using an autopen were just confessions. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

🚨BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes. Read them for yourself. It’s time to end this cover-up and RELEASE THE FILES.

Hardly surprising, but good to see it confirmed and in public. What else are the Epstein files hiding?

No, 0% is not actually greater than 0%. Sorry.

Not that anyone cares about my opinion, but the way this shutdown is ending would be a lot easier to swallow if the Dems that caved gave honest reasons as to why they chose to cave.

Why would Zohran talk to a random centimillionaire who doesn’t even live in NYC? Sorry Kevin, you’re not that special!

If you don’t go woke, you’ll go broke

Paging Jake Tapper

Well, this turned out to be wrong. The final results are around NJ: D+13 VA: D+15 NYC: Mamdani+9 I also mistakenly thought NJ would be closer (like D+5). But last night went about as well as Dems could hope for.

Mike Johnson is right that blue states voted blue. What should worry him and his Republican colleagues is *how much* they voted blue.
